Thanks again to Madden ratings czar Donny Moore, EA Sports has rolled out the latest ratings changes and has highlighted some of the key players to get adjustments.
The Manning brothers are featured in this week’s update, but not for a good reason by any means. Both Peyton and Eli struggled mightily and therefor will see ratings drops in Madden 15.
Starting with Eli and his five interception game, his overall rating drops down to an 82, with drops in other areas as well: AWR (-2), THA (-1), TAS (-2), TAM (-2) and TAD (-4).
Peyton’s day wasn’t much better as the Broncos fell to the lowly St. Louis Rams. No longer is Peyton Manning a 99 overall, dropping a point to 98 and seeing decreases across the board as well: TAS (-1), ThrowAccuracyMid, (-2), TAD (-1) and PAC: 98 (-1)
During a primetime game, LeVeon Bell went crazy for the Steelers and put himself into the conversation as one of the elite backs in the NFL. That is reflected in him being amongst the three notable risers this week.
THREE UP
Mike Evans – WR – TB (+3 to 85 OVR)
Le’Veon Bell – RB – PIT (+3 to 92 OVR)
Carlos Dunlap – DE – CIN (+2 to 87 OVR)
On the flip side, there were two big name wide receivers that failed to do much of anything this week and therefore are seeing their overall ratings take a slight hit.
THREE DOWN
Ryan Clady – LT – DEN (-2 to 88 OVR)
Calvin Johnson – WR – DET (-1 to 97 OVR)
T.Y. Hilton – WR – IND (-1 to 90 OVR)
